Bab 359: Alfred's Advice

"Is it about the match?" Asher asked.

He knew that acting oblivious would only make Alfred's doubts grow, so he began with the most obvious thing that might have prompted Alfred to seek him out.

"I will not criticize you for your actions, as it is not intention to do so," Alfred said, his demeanor shifting.

He wanted to corner Asher, but he knew Sylvie wouldn't approve.
